📖 Description:
How We Got Free follows Jacob (14) and Ora (11), two young siblings escaping enslavement, as they experience the four key laws that led to freedom during the Civil War:

⿡ The First Confiscation Act (1861) – Declaring enslaved people as "contraband of war."
⿢ The Second Confiscation Act (1862) – Strengthening legal protections for the formerly enslaved.
⿣ The Emancipation Proclamation (1863) – Paving the way for Black enlistment in the Union Army.
⿤ The 13th Amendment (1865) – Officially abolishing slavery in the U.S.

This engaging, historically accurate children’s book helps young readers understand the legal journey to freedom through vivid storytelling, illustrations, and interactive learning materials.
